Hi,

According to this commit description...

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=c8c109546a19613d323a319d0c921cb1f317e629

...there should be a huge speedup with zstd (compression/decompression)
in Kernel 5.16 (some examples):

- SquashFS zstd decompression+read is 15% faster
- ZRAM decompression+read is 30% faster
- Kernel zstd decompression is 35% faster
- Initramfs zstd decompression+build is 5% faster

Let's see if / when this has a positive impact on loading and runtime of
the installer. I'm especially interested in low-mem systems using zram.

HTH
Lukas
